I have been making art quilts for about 14 years now. I have made award winning quilts. In 2010 I had a quilt in a special exhibit in Houston. The exhibit was called "Out on a Limb". I have a passion for teaching quilting. My quilt Rosie, My Blue Heeler was in a special exhibit in Houston. I have taught at Quilt Expo for the past 5 years. I love giving lectures to guilds and workshops. Please visit my website http://laurakrasinski.com

A New Year

Happy New Year! I can't believe another year has passed. I have had so much fun the past year with lectures and workshops. Thank you to all of you who have supported me through the year.
I'm still looking for a full time job but, in the meantime I continue to receive phone calls from guilds and shops wanting me to lecture or teach. I am very blessed.
I have a few exciting events coming up I thought you might want to know about.

I will be vending at the winter quilt show on Feb. 23, 2013. It is a one day show. It will be held at the Washington County fairgrounds. For more info here is the website. http://winterquiltshow.com/

I will be teaching a workshop and giving a lecture at Common Threads on January 23, 2013. They meet St. James Parish in Menomonee Falls. The meetings start at 10:00.

Ben Franklin in Oconomowoc has invited me to teach 2 classes there this spring.
April 4 and April 18 from 6:00pm - 8 :30pm I will be teaching a Bigfork Bay Cotton Co. class. Ben Franklin has patterns and fabrics there for the class. Or if you already have a pattern or a pattern and fabric and want to learn the steps to putting it together this is the class for you. More info on their website http://benfranklincraftswi.com

This is Romancing Red a fun easy pattern to learn.

I will also be teaching a class on what I like to call Thread Sketching. It is like thread painting but, not so elaborate. This class is about embellishing with thread, beads, buttons.. etc. The first week I will show you how to thread sketch and you will be practicing on quilt sandwiches. Then you will take a piece of printed fabric and embellish it with your thread sketching. It's a lot of fun!!
These classes are May 15 and May 22. 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
